Some really nice acquisitions Louis. I assume Essex Regiment is a small British maker.

Brad,

Actually, its the brand name of figures made by Alan Kelsey, an American maker from Florida who, sadly, recently passed away. His glossy figures go very well with Trophy or later K&C Glossy.

How are you doing, healthwise?

They are very nice figures Louis. Too bad he passed away.

Healthwise, I’m doing well. I was lucky I was in the hospital when I was when Covid cases were stable here. Now they’re going up.

Hope you and Meredith and the kids are doing well.

Brad,

Glad to hear you are well. My back comes and goes, but other than that we are all fine. The Covid vaccine can't come soon enough, as far as I'm concerned. I'm tired of worrying about all my friends and loved ones.

Amen to that. I just hope we all make it through.

Trophy never made a WWI German Field Artillery Set, so I bought some castings, and asked our good (and incredibly talented) friend John O'Brien (Obee) to paint it in the Trophy Glossy style. It arrived today, and I could not be more pleased. Here it is on my Trophy (and other glossy) WWI display:

glad to see you picked a few up. I always heard there were not more than 12 of each made which justifies the price.

Thanks to the kindness of Martyn, who saw a set I didn't even know existed, and bought it then offered it to me, I will be adding set EQ-64, "Cooks and Supplies" to my Trophy WWI Collection! Here are some photos that Martyn sent me of the set, an add on set to the Field Kitchen on the March set:

I just picked up another one of these with a $99 buy-it-now off eBay!
